Description
He glanced at his wrist dive computer. "We have 30 minutes of air and we should allow 15 minutes for ascending safely."
"We can at least do a cursory inspection of the wreck, Bruno! We certainly have time for that!" She pleaded.
Molly's art notes: Set up and rendered with Poser 13.1.469 using the Superfly Cycles X rendering engine. Some postwork was done in Superfly and a tad more in Photoshop. Yet another effort to create a fairly convincing underwater image. I'm not going for completely real looking as the visibility and lighting would be much more dim. I am trying for something that "feels" right. XD
Bruno is based on L'Homme and Lorraine is based on La Femme 2. The sea bed and such is an old piece by Cybertenko. Their diving gear is originally for Aiko 3 and came through the fitting room for this picture (except the fins which are for V4). The wrecked submarine is a freebie.

Looks good, I have yet to dive into an underwater scene. You pulled it off nicely.
"DIVE into an underwater scene?" I see what you did there! XD
Thanks for your supportive comment, my dear. It's always great to hear from you! =)

looks super in that depth of the ocean.
Thank you! I'm still trying to get underwater figure out... this one is probably a bit too light but if it "feels" underwater to you than I'm winning, I guess. ;-)
Molly
Splendid!
Thank you for such kind encouragement! <3

Well done with Poser. The best software for realistic underwater landscapes is Vue, but it's too much expensive!
I'm not familiar with any software for this sort of thing except Poser. I will have to take a peek at Vue, Alain, but I expect you're right and it will be too expensive for my online budget. I am delighted that you think I'm getting a good result with Poser, though. Thank you so much for the encouragement, my dear! <3

This really does look great. They'd better keep an eye on that big guy in the background too!
Heh. Thanks Rod! I thought about making the shark a bit more threatening but decided on concentrating on getting the characters (and particularly their faces) discernible and still have that "underwater feeling". I love that you are always attentive to the details in pictures that you comment on. <3
Molly
Marvellous work!
Thank you for the lovely comment, my dear! I always enjoy hearing from you! =)

Beautiful image! I have not tried underwater renders myself, but I'm sure that's a challenge! Good job here, beautiful!
Thanks! =) I always wind up too dark and murky or too light and clear. This one is trending a bit to the light and clear side. Probably that's the better way to err as the viewer has no problem discerning things. Actually, the biggest challenge in this one was lighting the helmets so that the characters faces are visible >.<
